The ABC drama - which premiered on Tuesday night and which is set in 1980s Los Angeles, with Ed Westwick as a serial killer - opened to dismal numbers.

It was viewed by 3.3 million total viewers and garnered a 0.9 rating among 18-49-year olds, both of which are below the averages of its timeslot-predecessor, Forever.

Considering Forever was axed after one season, and considering premiere numbers for any series almost always drop precipitously in subsequent weeks... you can do the unfortunate math for Westwick and company.

NCIS (16.4 million/2.0) dropped 5 percent and two tenths, while New Orleans (13 million/1.6) and Limitless (7.6 million/1.4) held firm.

The Muppets (4.3 million/1.4 rating) went up a tad; Fresh off the Boat (4 million/1.4 rating) held steady and Agents of SHIELD (3.8 million/1.4 rating) dropped a tenth.

Best Time Ever (4.3 million/1.1 rating) remained firm, The Voice (10 million/2.5 rating) slipped 12 percent and two tenths; and Chicago Fire (7.8 million/1.9 rating) earned its best numbers since April.
